    New to Denver - best mechanics

    Hey guys,

    I have a 911SC and I need to get a few things checked like the shocks, oil change, and a few other random things. I live the Highlands near downtown Denver. Any suggestions on the best shop that specializes in Porsches close to the city?

    Any suggestions on the best place to get it detailed/ cleaned?

    Thanks!

    You may want to check out Eisenbuds. They have one of my Carrera’s in there now.

    They rebuilt a 915 for me for our Beck 904GTS, soon to be done
    They currently have our ‘86 Targa, cleaning up some electrical gremlins. They came highly recommended by a good friend who lives in the area. Pretty much exclusively P-car only and judging by the sheer # of cars in their shop, I’d say well trusted. The owner has been around the early air cooled cars for a LONG LONG time. Good luck.

    Actually, PCA AMR is based in the Colorado Springs area, down south. The OP lives in Denver, and so would do a lot better aligning with the PCA Rocky Mountain Region, which is very active. RMR and AMR do many things together in any case.
